3/5
Almost as if by force of will, this South Korean animated fantasy mostly overcomes a story that's both familiar and convoluted and an animation style that looks like video-game cut scenes. Go to Full Review

Exorcism Chronicles: The Beginning teases a lot of interesting narrative avenues without ever providing any follow-through. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
The narrative of Exorcism Chronicles: The Beginning is constantly torn between setting up some bigger picture ... and actually telling a story that stands on its own. Go to Full Review

jesse v Oct 22 interesting anime adaptation of the graphic novel. there were some scenes where not much happens or the animation looked stiff. but as a first movie in this series, not bad. See more Claudio C @Claudio666 3d Toemalog / Exorcism Chronicles: The Beginning (2024) Stylish Animation (12,259 - 06 Feb 2026 – Claudio Carvalho) A woman calls Father Park since a demon has possessed the priest in her church. He fights the demon that flees. His old friend from the medical school, Jang Jun-hoo, meets him to summon him to protect the powerful boy Joon-hoo from Master Seo, who was corrupted by dark forces and ambitious to perform the Grand Ritual to become more powerful. Lee Hyun-am, who is a powerful fighter, joins the fight against Master Seo. "Toemalog", a.k.a."Exorcism Chronicles: The Beginning" (2024), is a stylish South Korean animation. The plot is confusing for those that are not familiar with the best-seller, but it is possible to be understood. My vote is six.
